    Skyline
    Created by Seaboro Kibbles

    Recommended Players: 2-12
    Recommended Gametypes: Hog The Hill

    What does it take to be a king? Some royal blood, a court jester and a wake of destruction on your way to the throne? Well, Skyline redefines the path to royalty with some warthog bashing, ghost splattering fun. And unlike other renditions of sumo variants, Skyline mixes it up with level variations for added playspace, pristine ramps, and great aesthetics.

    Skyline, naturally, is located in the sky bubble to provide that heart pounding experience as you and your friends push each other off the level to become the king. The layout breaks the norm with tri-symmetry and a round center that keeps mayhem at peak levels. The central hole is lined with slight ramps to offer a risky getaway or deliver a quick knockout. So what are you waiting for? Download and play with your friends and you’ll soon realize that it’s good to be the king.

    When it comes to monster trucks maps, this one's got to be the absolute best. Aesthetics are top noche, and tight spaces make for some awesome and frantic gameplay. Well deserved, congratz, Seaboro!

    Seaboro Kibbles definately deserves this feature. All of his maps have been truly spectacular and take old games to new heights.
    I'm glad he finally gets the recognition he deserves.

    As much as I like the aesthetics of this map, it isn't very fun. It is too easy to fall off of the map because the pathways are very narrow. Nonetheless, congrats Kibbles

    I disagree, it was immensely fun to play because of that. It took awarness to know where the gaps are and when to bail out, and also made for some great lulz whenever someone fell of due to being overpowered in the narrow pathways or fogetting one's footing.

    Gratz Kibbles, and thank you for the enjoyment.

    No one so far has commented on the maps size or narrowness while playing it, it looks small in the screenshots, and like Shanon said, narrow is what is exciting. And if you have played it, then point taken.

    Every object in this map i geared for gameplay, except for the stupid blue thing in the sky. And you say you like the aesthetics. I guess the maps like a fighter jet, fully designed for performance, but naturaly looks good in the process.

    Not too surprised that this would get featured. The map plays so well, I love jumping ontop of other warthogs with my own. Congrats on the feature, 1 more to go. This is definitely my favorite monster style jam map to date.

    No.

    I stand by my first opinion of this map. I do not like narrow passages. I like the idea of having to overpower your opponent, rather than wait until they mess up and fall. While I agree a big square isn't the best idea, I still like a bigger, open area to battle it out. This is a good map, but I just don't like the style.

    I don't recall anyone falling off by themselves.. Well, actually once some guy drove right into the middle and fell through the hole, he didn't know it was there. Oh, and once my stupid friend was playing split screen and I think he looked on my screen or something and drove right off the edge, lol. I was shocked with the difference between forgehub and anyone who plays it..

    And thanks everyone who likes the game, I'm glad you all enjoy it!

    Crap, this is the most beautiful trucks map out there! This is tons better than Rats Nest on monster trucks. Props for making loyal, but I call next. It's time for a sweet Close Quarters Infection map and I plan to bring it to the community soon. In time people :)

    Why is this featured? I thought it was rubbish to play, It's too small for more than 4 people and with less than 4 people its boring. Nobody had fun in my game of it. I'm guessing the only reason most of you like it is because its made well and looks good, because it doesn't win on gameplay by a long shot.

    Sorry, it just angers me when a map gets loved for looks rather than gameplay.

    I thought the gameplay was grea It's so much fun to push people off in this, I thought the best part was because of the elevation change, and how you have so many ways to knock someone off, and I found it fun with just 2 people.

    Im confused to why smear the ***** (also by Seboro Kibbles) didn't get featured but this did. I had more fun splattering people than splattering other hogs. But the map is well made, and it is the best hog sumo game.

    This is the most fun monster trucks map I've ever played on. The hole in the center looks amazing. You are now the King of Monster Truck maps, but I'm still the King.
    5/5
